door undercut, louvered door or wall grill. This eliminates the
need to remote mount the humidity control.
WARNING!
Before installing the
dehumidifier in the manner described in section
4.1D (Fig. 3), call the factory for specific
instructions if backdraft devices (i.e. hot
waters heaters) are present in the space to be
dehumidified.
4.1D In A Remote Area, Duct Inlet Only (fig. 4)
When the Santa Fe Max Dry Dual XT is located in a room
separate from the main area to be dehumidified, it may be
desirable to dehumidify and/or slightly pressurize that room.
Pressurization assures that open combustion devices do
not backdraft. This can be prevented by installing a duct
from the humid room to the Santa Fe Max Dry Dual XT inlet
and by allowing the Santa Fe Max Dry Dual XT to discharge
dehumidified air into the room in which it’s located. An
adequate air flow path must exist between the two rooms for
this method to work properly.
WARNING!
4.2 Electrical Requirements
The SANTA FE Max Dry Dual XT plugs into a common grounded
outlet on a 110-120 VAC 15-Amp circuit. While operating, it
draws less than 7 amps @ 80°F, 60% RH and less than 6 amps
@ 75°F, 50% RH. Use of a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected circuit is recommended. The unit should not be used
in areas prone to flooding.
CAUTION!
For proper drainage, the
unit must be mounted so the drain outlet is at
least 4" above the floor drain, and must be fully
supported under the base.
4.3 Condensate Water Removal
Condensate drains by gravity via the drain port. Use 3/4"
male NPT PVC pipe. Route drain to drain. Install a trap
if possible. Take care when installing drain pipe to drain
port. Use an adjustable wrench to secure the drain port. An
optional condensate pump kit (4022220) may be installed if
a lift is required to dispose of the condensate. To order call
1-800-533-7533.
Route the drain hose through the trap as shown below in
Figure 6. Position the trap on the hose approximately 12"
away from the unit.
1.00"
External drain trap on unit
is recommended
5. Ducting
5.1 Outlet Duct Kit (P/N 4028607)
A factory designed outlet duct kit can be purchased to accept
10" ducting to both outlets of the Santa Fe Max Dry Dual XT.
Contact your dealer or call 1-800-533-7533 to order.
